    AOC lied there. Most senetors and politicians are rich millionares including AOC and Bernie Sanders simply because their salaries, packages, donations are $300k/yr minimum. but thats notjing compared to corrupt senetors whose net wealth in the hundrends of millions , or billionares like the president family

      Last I checked (just now), US representatives make $174K/year. They’re not allowed to keep donations for themselves and I can’t find mention of any additional pay packages.

      Can you show me where this additional $126K is coming from?
